It’s possible to log in to WebinarGeek using your Google or Microsoft account. This can be configured either when you first create your account or afterwards when using your email address and password to create an account.

However, there are a few limitations that come with a WebinarGeek account through Google and Microsoft to be aware of:

  • It's not possible to change the email address or password in your WebinarGeek account.

  • It's not possible to recover your password in WebinarGeek because the account doesn’t have a password.

  • Two-factor authentication and security keys are not available.

  • Extra users in the account that don't log in with Google or Microsoft can still use two-factor authentication and security keys.

  • The account owner can still enforce these extra users to use two-factor authentication and/or security keys.
